Becoming A Similar Ministry

Becoming A Similar Ministry

The pillar of Crystal Peaks’ Empower the Ministry exists to help support those who have a similar heart to join in the ministry of serving kids and their families. From the very early years of CPYR, it has been our desire to shoulder alongside like-minded Believers in their vision to reach others for Christ using the tool of a horse.

Our love for God and the incomparable blessing of His love for us is the foundation that inspires Crystal Peaks to work together in bringing the Gospel of Jesus to the world around us. This is the tie that binds us together. We are also deeply moved by the unique and creative ways the Lord has called each of us to ranch ministry. Because of this individuality, no two ministries will resemble another, and this brings us so much joy. Colossians 3:17 states, “And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.” Since 1995, we have been constantly blessed to witness the beautiful and simple ways Jesus uses the horse and Ranch to bring His love, hope, healing and redemption to the children and families that call Crystal Peaks their home.

It is our mission to help train up Christian leaders in their own communities who are passionate to start a similar ranch or ministry of their own. We do this by offering a one-time training event known as our Ignition Clinic. During this clinic our goal is to share the story of Crystal Peaks and the tools that helped us, so you in return can continue to develop the story God is molding for you.

Once your ranch is up and running, and, you are actually serving families; you may choose to apply to become a Similar Ministry of Crystal Peaks. We encourage you to walk out a minimum of a year in ministry before applying. Becoming a Similar Ministry is an application process; not all who apply will qualify.
